➡️ Some bloody great team members (if we don't say so ourselves 😉)

➡️ A LOT of independence and responsibility, you'll essentially be building a company within the company but with a ton of support and resourcing

➡️ Amazing startup experience

➡️ Flexible work from home, but a team who loves to catch up for Friday night drinks

➡️ Salary is variable but expect approximately $60,000 - $80,000 base per year (excl. Super + Leave entitlements) + generous bonus structure (20K-50K). There is room for negotiation. We're very transparent about what we budget for roles like this, but final salary will likely be determined after you've completed the entire interviewing process, in discussion with you.

➡️ Fun 🤩
